The Path Toward Heaven Chapter 21: A giant whale jumping out of the sea
The real morning light can never be seen in the underground block, and you can only tell yourself the arrival of the morning through the sound of an alarm clock.
In such an environment, it is extremely difficult to imagine that people on the entire planet can maintain almost the same biological clock and social order.
"Oh! Oh! Oh!"
The alarm clock kept ringing on the cabinet, and it felt like a chicken in the middle of the night.
The big yellow cat in the photo stared at the black eyeballs and looked at the alarm clock that kept calling, probably wondering where you were hiding?
Jing Jiu and Zhong Lizi opened the door at the same time and walked out. Zhong Lizi called out early, and Jing Jiu said yes. Then, as in the past many days, Zhong Lizi began to wash, take medicine, take breakfast, and make tea. Jing Jiu piled a few cushions together, leaned on a chair and started to watch the news.
If you don’t look at the age shown on their faces, if it weren’t for Jing Jiu who never eats breakfast, they really look like a couple who have been married for more than ten years.
But today is a little different after all.
Zhong Lizi is about to leave this gloomy neighborhood and go to the distant and high second world to study at Star Gate University.
She will not return to this apartment building for at least six months in the future.
"Are you sure you will go with me, right?" She took a sip of black tea, covered the expectation on her face with hot mist, pretending to be calm.
Jing Jiu watched the news about the internal dispatch of the Far Star Fleet on TV, he hummed, and added: "I've settled and went to find you."
Zhong Lizi was a little disappointed, but she thought that she would see each other again soon. It was 33,000 times stronger than that, and she was happy again.
"Then I will hang out the lease today."
Although it is an underground block away from the bustling and blue sky, the government's management is still effective, and there are special departments responsible for entrusting and collecting rent.
Since she is going to be away for six months, of course she wants to rent out the apartment to earn some money.
"No." Jing Jiu expressed his opposition without hesitation.
He couldn't accept other men living in this house, and he was even more uncomfortable thinking that that man would lean on his chair.
At the beginning, he clearly calculated that Gu Qing might leave, but he still refused to give Zhuo Rusui the head. That's why.
Zhong Lizi wondered how much less would he earn?
The sentence "You can make up for me" was about to blurt out, she suddenly thought of his temperament and he had helped herself so much, so she shut up quickly.
"I'll make it up for you." Jing Jiu didn't know what she was thinking, and said, "Two gold coins."
Where is Zhong Lizi willing to accept it, and said: "Your lease hasn't expired. I have to refund you. What do you make up for?"
Jing Jiu said: "You don't need to return, there are a lot of money to spend when you go out."
This is still the experience he and Zhao Layue gained from their travels. Whether it is staying in the Tianzi A room of the inn, or going to the auction house to **** things from people, whether it is to eat the best seafood hot pot, or rent the most comfortable carriage, it all costs money. This is not over yet, he continued: "I transferred you some credits."
These credits were transferred from the owner's account of the game hall. I believe that no one in the entire Galaxy Alliance can find out where the money is going. The reason why he chose the game hall boss was not because he had long discovered that the money came from unclean, nor was it because he felt that the boss had a bad temper, but was just used to it.
I'm already familiar with the game hall owner, why change someone else?
Like the Qingshan Sect, whether it is Taiping Zhenren, Liu Ci or Gu Qing, when leaving Chaotian Continent to go to sea, he always used to go to Penglai Island to get a treasure ship.
Is this really like Gu Qing said, deliberately owing the treasure ship king a favor?
Maybe he thinks this way. Taiping Zhenren, Liu Ci and Jing Jiu certainly don't think so.
They are just used to it.
Habits are the most insurmountable spiritual shackles for human beings, even for those who are successful in cultivating the Tao.
Anyway, the treasure ship king has money and boats, so he doesn't care about this.
Of course, it's useless even if he cares.
……
……
Zhong Lizi was startled, clicked on the information on the bracelet, and found that there was a large amount of money in the account.
Of course she cares about this large sum of money, because she is going to school and genetic optimization. She wants to live.
She did not try to return the money again, but looked at Jing Jiu and said seriously, "Thank you."
Whether she is in elementary school or middle school or Xinshi Academy, her temperament looks a little proud and cold, even if it was a disguise at the beginning, it has become a habit after a long time.
She rarely accepts help from others, and naturally there is no opportunity to say thank you.
Since the young tenant was added to the family, she has said thank you more than in the previous 16 years.
Because the teenager is constantly helping her and she is not allowed to refuse.
"I said, I'm using you. These are rewards." Jing Jiu looked at her and said.
The corners of Zhong Lizi's lips raised slightly, revealing a charming smile, and said: "But at least you haven't used it yet."
After saying this, she walked into Jing Jiu's arms, hugged him hard, leaned her head on his shoulder, and refused to leave for a long time.
The room became very quiet, the alarm clock rang again without ignorance, and the sound in the news gradually became quieter.
Jing Jiu is very experienced in this kind of thing, like a wooden person, with his hands hanging on his side, his eyes straight ahead, his deliberate breathing is very steady, and his heartbeat has not changed in any way.
This is the so-called hug, I will not hold my waist.
I don’t know how much time has passed. It should not be short, but not too long.
When Jing Jiu started to read the fourth essay, Zhong Lizi finally let go of her hand, uncomfortably arranging her silver hair, and turned back to the bedroom.
She went back to the bedroom to pack her luggage and to make the blush on her face fade a little.
Packing your luggage is very simple. Stargate University provides board and lodging, as well as four sets of uniforms and school uniforms for both winter and summer. There are free movie theaters, game experience rooms, stadiums, fitness rooms... Yes, and it’s free.
She only brought some personal clothes and personal supplies, and then she walked out of the bedroom and came to the cabinet. She looked at the big yellow cat in the photo, her eyes showing dismay.
Jing Jiu looked at the chair, also a little bit disheartened.
Leaving Chaotian Continent, his possession of the world lost its meaning, and he could no longer carry things at any time. Even if he went to Yunmeng Mountain to get a space magical weapon, he would definitely have it Broken. Should I leave this chair here?
Zhong Lizi took out a backpack to him, and said, "No matter where you hide the money and things, be careful when taking it out so that no one can see it."
The backpack is made of tooling cloth. There is a layer of black patent leather on the outside. It's fairly strong, but it doesn't look good.
Jing Jiu never cared about things like face value, put the silver computer in his bag, stuffed it in a blue sportswear that hadn't been seen before, turned and left the apartment.
……
……
The gray-white aircraft left the lawn and flew towards the sky.
There are countless heavy clouds and fog, and the platform is looming in between, like two cliffs standing opposite each other, leaving only a sky.
Looking at the flying machine gradually disappearing into the clouds, the students of New World College were in a mixed mood, and slowly stopped waving their hands.
Lu Shuiqian looked at the fuzzy marks left by the two flying vehicles on the lawn, and didn't know why he cried, hiding his face and ran into the distance.
The students were a little surprised at this scene, thinking that your relationship with Zhong Lizi is so good?
……
……
Zhong Lizi sat by the window, a little nervous.
She didn't want to be seen by the middle-aged man named Gao Shu opposite, she covered her head with a sportswear hat, and turned and looked out the window. The feelings of parting had already been expressed in the apartment. She knew Jing Jiu would not come to see her off, so she didn't look at the teachers and classmates who had turned into ants on the lawn below.
This is the first time she has left the underground block. Besides being nervous, of course, she also has a lot of fresh feelings.
She looked at the looming platforms in the clouds and at the buildings on those platforms with obviously different styles, her eyes very focused.
Tao Shu sat across from him, looking at her intently and not easily, and felt that the president and his own judgment were not wrong.
Who would be so calm the first time out of the ground? Don't forget that she is only sixteen years old.
This little girl is definitely not as simple as the information shows, at least her life experience cannot be so simple.
Yes, although her life experience is bleak, it is very common. In the Galaxy Alliance, the secondary genetic modification provided by the government is ineffective, and there are too many people who have no money to carry out independent genetic optimization, so that the disease takes their lives. As for the fund scam, more people are forced to commit suicide.
The question is, what is the relationship between her and the chairman who is far away from the main star?
The silver-gray aircraft kept rising in the clouds.
Those clouds and fog are much sparser than those seen from afar, and much lighter than the surface clouds written in the textbook, and the line of sight can easily pass through.
Zhong Lizi quietly looked out the window, looked at the old-age slogans painted on the steel structure cliffs, looked at the waste water emerging from the cracks, and suddenly thought that there would be occasional rain in the underground blocks. Could it be that These?
I don't know how long it has passed, the clouds and mist have dispersed, and the steel structure cliffs have gradually been replaced by newer suspended load-bearing platforms, and the two sides have been separated further and further.
The most obvious change is that the area of the blue sky above is getting bigger and bigger, and the white clouds are getting clearer and more and more like those seen on textbooks and TV.
Suddenly, the aircraft jumped out of the ground.
The sun just appeared out of the window abruptly, in front of Zhong Lizi's eyes.
At this moment, she could no longer remain calm, opened her mouth slightly, and thought of a documentary she had watched.
A deep-sea whale went upstream for a long, long time, and finally rushed out of the sea, into the sky, making a deep and joyful cry. The problem is that the whale only stayed in the sky for a short time, then fell into the sea again, and was finally dragged back to the port by the fishing boat on that planet, where it became a source of food and protein powder.
Is it the same for myself?
The silver-gray aircraft suddenly began to descend, drawing a clear arc in the sky.
I don’t know if it reminded her of the whale, or she thought of the strange world she was about to step into, she nervously grabbed the seat belt, and subconsciously looked around, but didn’t see that which made her feel at ease Silhouette.
Where are you now?
……
……
People in the underground block have not seen the sun for a long time, and they feel that the street lights are also beautiful.
It's just that the street lights are on day and night, so the beauty quickly fades.
Jing Jiu stood under a broken street lamp, waiting for the dim sunlight to flash in the sky, and then waited for a long time.
There are still many math papers to read, and the waiting is not difficult for him.
The street lights flickered slightly, and the extremely dangerous steel cliff above became pitch black.
He walked to the end of the alley with a backpack on his back and flew along the rusted iron frame.
Yefeng lifted his hat, his speed is getting faster and faster, just in the blink of an eye, he crossed the cliff where the New World Academy is located.
During this process, he adjusted the direction of all the monitors during the flight through the network, and at the same time turned off more than a dozen scanners between the platforms. Turning off the scanner will cause an alarm, but as long as the time it is turned off is short enough, it will be attributed to strong current fluctuations or other inexplicable reasons by those who are in the trouble.
The bàozhà vitality tester of the New World College gave him confidence in his inferences drawn from TV and books.
If there are lights on those steel walls, and if someone’s eyesight is sharp enough, you can see a particularly magical scene at this time. A teenager in sportswear, carrying a backpack, is like going to school. Traveling between giant steel beams~IndoMTL.com~A few kilometers can be crossed with a light tiptoe.
All the scanners and monitoring equipment are in his mind. The circuit he designed is perfect, without any obstacles, and without anyone's attention.
It would be even simpler if he became a sword light. The problem is that there are always several warships floating in a corner of the dark universe, and any moving objects that exceed the speed of common sense will attract the attention of those people.
He jumped between the giant steel beams, like Zhong Lizi saw the sewage flowing out of the cracks, saw the living platforms that could only be looked up below in the past, and saw the buildings. In the process, he also passed through several layers of enclosed platforms with obviously a little different. They used old-fashioned concrete with gaps everywhere, which may be leftovers from wars in ancient times.
The dark sky gradually took on some color, it was a warm light red, just like the light radiating from the Fusi sword when Zhao Layue was in a good mood.
With a swish, a black figure appeared on the edge of the huge suspended load-bearing platform, quietly crossing the magnetic fence, and walking towards the distant city.
At this time, Chaoyang jumped out from the distant mountain, illuminating the whole world. 8
